Homework 8 – Reflection on Perspective

I think all three of my perspective drawings (interior and exterior) fulfilled the criteria. In all three I was able to capture depth as well as the layout of the room or area. I also tried to incorporate details to make each image more interesting.

For the unshaded interior perspective I could have improved on the lines of my dresser which appear slightly slanted in the wrong direction. In the shaded interior perspective I was happy with the depth and shading of the staircase, however I would like to make the floor a little more realistic by capturing the shine & texture of the hardwood. My outdoor perspective drawing conveys the size of the building well and fills the page.
